I got a 3GS less than 2 weeks ago.

I looked at the Milestone, but the only thing that it had going for it was the slide out keypad, but once I had it in my hands, it didn't really impress me.

I am the furthest thing from an Apple fanboy as you can find, but so far, I love the thing. My only complaint is with getting used to the keypad for making calls, but that's minor.

I have mine with Virgin, who has the cheapest plan I could find. $50 a month for 150 anytime minutes; free evening and weekends starting at 7; 500MB of data; plus call display and voice mail. Telus, Bell, and Rogers all have similar deals, but Virgin's included more minutes, an earlier "evening", and no activation fee. I have a wireless network at home, so I hardly use any data off the network. I've had it for 2 weeks and haven't even used 50MB yet, so I won't even come close to 500MB in a month.
